once you nod, you cant stop nodding. know it sounds corny but nod is better than syman and takes up way less memory. just give it a try and you'll love it

[Mike20PR]

Yeah, I use Nod32 ever since Kaos pointed me in the right directions. It works flawlessly :)

the thing is that my pc now only shows the desktop background but no icons, no start menu, no nothing!! i had to open the task manager manually by pressing ALT, CTRL, DEL to open my applications, thats when i needed NOD. NOD as far as i can see cleaned up my mess but i still cant get my icons to appear yet, was that a virus or a setting that was messed with??

naw go to your settings and make sure you have the taskbar and all as not being on hide and all of that along with the icons...... if not i personally have no clue what would be causing it.

I had this happen one time and had to reinstall windows. Unless you want to pay someone to figure out which file is being corrupted. I just reinstalled it. Not sure what caused it either.

thanx, im not sure what caused it either but im not that bummed, all i need is to store some of my moms important docs in a usb and all my music and cab files are in my moguls storage card so im set, maybe ill upgrade to vista while im at it, but ive gotten mixed reviews on it, what do you think??

i myslef run \vista ultimate and love it..... but go to the microsoft website and download this file and it will tell you what will run best on your computer and mine was ultimate so i went with ultimate.

I myslef has used it at a friends and was not partial to it. BUT Also have heard from others that they love it (like d/\sh). User preference I guess.
